Hi all,
Thought I'd do my bit and help out with the recent fires. Looking at selling these - I'll match what people offer and donate all the proceeds to one of the bush fire appeals.
I've got about 3 archive boxes full of old 1:250K and 1:100K reports (most with maps) and some books I salvaged from an old workplace. They were going to throw them out. I've got (approx.):
TAS - 8 Geological Survey Explanatory Reports 1 mile series, including Bulletin 50
SA - 15 Geological Survey Explanatory Notes 1:250K
QLD - 92 Geological Survey Explanatory Notes 1:250K
NT - 62 Geological Survey Explanatory Notes 1:250K
New England (NSW) - 8, including 4 mile series
WA - 67 (including 11 GSWA Records)
PNG - 16 reports 1:50K
Also: G.W. Lilley - The Story of Landsdowne: The History of a Western Queensland Sheep Station
I've donated a whole bunch to various uni's in Vic (Melb Uni, Ballarat Uni - called Federation Uni now) and to the students of geology departments, this is the last batch I've got. Melb Uni wasn't interested in any donations - these days uni's aren't really interested in this stuff anymore (bit of a disappointment - they used to want this stuff many years ago). I think this has some value - I don't really want to throw it out, but they have been sitting around the house for years.
Let me know if there is any interest and I'll post exactly what I've got. I'm not asking for a price on each/all - just make me an offer. I'm in the western suburbs of Melbourne.
Thanks
Andrew
